Editor's Notes

  • #9 API-led connectivity is a methodical way to connect data to applications through reusable and purposeful APIs. These APIs are developed to play a specific role – unlocking data from systems, composing data into processes, or delivering an experience. API-led connectivity not only depends on three categories of reusable APIs to compose new services and capabilities, but also decentralizes and democratizes access to enterprise data. Central IT produces reusable assets, and in the process unlocks key systems, including legacy applications, data sources, and SaaS apps. Central IT and other teams can then reuse these API assets and compose process level information. Then, app developers can discover and self-serve on all of these reusable assets, creating the experience layer of APIs and ultimately the end-applications. This API-led approach to integration increases agility, speed, and productivity. System APIs – these usually access the core systems of record and provide a means of insulating the user from the complexity or any changes to the underlying systems. Once built, many users, can access data without any need to learn the underlying systems and can reuse these APIs in multiple projects. Process APIs – These APIs interact with and shape data within a single system or across systems (breaking down data silos) and are created here without a dependence on the source systems from which that data originates, as well as the target channels through which that data is delivered. Experience APIs – Experience APIs are the means by which data can be reconfigured so that it is most easily consumed by its intended audience, all from a common data source, rather than setting up separate point-to-point integrations for each channel. An Experience API is usually created with API-first design principles where the API is designed for the specific user experience in mind.
  • #15 Hi everyone, thanks for being here today. Today we are going to have talks about XXX, XXX and a special presentation about the various ways to learn about MuleSoft, grow your skills and become certified. Being MuleSoft-certified is clearly a huge asset in the marketplace today, and the Community team at MuleSoft wants to make it easier for all of us to pass a certification exam. Until the end of the year, all Meetup attendees (meaning all of you here today) will receive a free exam for the certification of your choice. Make sure to get your name checked with myself or my co-leader(s), and you’ll receive your voucher via email within 10 days. Without further ado, let’s get started.
  • #16 So – what are “Community Success Months”? November and December are a special time this year during which all Meetup attendees receive advice on how to expand their MuleSoft skills and get them officially recognized with a certification. To make this even more accessible – everyone receives a complimentary certification exam voucher (for the exam of your choice).
  • #18 MuleSoft U is MuleSoft’s official free and self-paced training courses. This is a great way to get started on Anypoint Platform without commitment, and at your own pace. The team has made great updates on the content (MuleSoft U now covers Mule 4) as well as on the format, which is easier to follow at your rhythm. The ”Mule 4 for Mule 3 users” course is now available for free as part of MuleSoft U. It was previously a paid-class, led by an instructor in person. Registering for MuleSoft U is easy, you can do it online at the URL on the slide. All courses are complete, with between 6 to 40 hours of content. 4 different courses are available as part of MuleSoft U: Getting started with Anypoint Platform: for anyone and everyone involved in an Anypoint Platform project who wants to get hands-on experience learning what Anypoint Platform is and how it is used to discover, consume, design, build, deploy, manage, and govern APIs. Students do not write any code in this course. Development fundamentals: for developers and architects who want to get hands-on experience using Anypoint Platform to build APIs and integrations. In the first part, students use Anypoint Platform to discover, consume, design, build, deploy, manage, and govern APIs. In the second part, students focus on using Mule and Anypoint Studio to build applications for use as API implementations and/or integrations. Mule 4 for Mule 3 users: for experienced Mule 3 developers who want to quickly uplevel their skills to Mule 4. The course is hands-on and focuses on what’s new and/or different in Mule 4 and Studio 7. Flow design: for people that work with data and want to get hands-on experience using the new web-based flow designer in Design Center to build integrations that connect systems quickly and easily.
  • #19 Instructor-led training (either live online or in a classroom) is generally more impactful learning than self-study of content, and is the standard recommendation for customers and if you have a project starting in a couple weeks and you need to get up to speed quickly. There are 12 different courses available, for all profiles involved with MuleSoft: developers, architects, admins, IT ops, managers. Covering these 12 classes would take a long time, so I invite you to visit training.mulesoft.com to consult the whole catalog and see the current schedules. Instructor-led classes come with an appreciable price but is generally more impactful learning than self-study of content, and is the standard recommendation for customers and if you have a project starting in a couple weeks and you need to get up to speed quickly. If you listen closely to the rest of the presentations and are lucky to win at our trivia, you can receive one of the 5 instructor-led classes we have to give away tonight!
  • #20 The training team at MuleSoft released a set of useful tools to get ready to attempt a certification exam. For the MCD – Level 1 Certification particularly, you can find a complete self-assessment quiz and more than 10 do-it-yourself exercises in MuleSoft U (meaning free and self-paced). It turns out that these tools are very useful for developers to prep – 90% of the developers who used them passed the certification! Key core concepts covered in the exam Application Network Basics Designing and Consuming APIs Structuring Mule Applications Transforming Data with Dataweave Debugging and Managing APIs and Integrations
  • #21 The MCD – Level 1 certification isn’t the only one available. There are 7 certifications available today - both for developers and architects – and these really prove you have solid skills on MuleSoft. The Integration Professional certification is the highest ranked for developers and requires several years of hands-on experience. The MCIA (MuleSoft Certified Integration Architect) is the highest ranked for architects, and was launched recently. Most exams are between one and two hour-long, cost $250, and have a pass score comprised between 70 and 80%. These exams are proctored (online or in a testing center), closed book and have multiple-choice questions.
  • #22 Just like training, there is a lot to say about each certification, so you can download data sheets about each of them at this URL to learn more about their scope and requirements. More than 45 datasheets are available at this URL, and they cover both training courses and certifications.
  • #23 This was a lot of information about how to get trained and certified. Now – let’s hear directly from Frances Sink, Certifications and Programs lead at MuleSoft. She’s about to share with you her best practices to prepare and pass certification exams, and make the best use of the free voucher you’ll get after this event.
  • #24 Alright – that was super helpful! So as a recap – all of you in this room will receive a free certification exam of your choice within 10 days after this event. Make sure to get your name checked on the list with myself or my co-leader(s).
  • #25 As an additional way to learn and grow your skills, the MuleSoft Documentation is always helpful.
  • #26 The Docs team has recently released a brand new version of the docs, that’s fully up to date. The search has also been improved, it enables users to filter by product component and their version.
  • #27 And as always, MuleSoft Forums are a great place to ask questions, give and get help.
  • #28 More than 15,000 members are ready to help, from all around the world. Before posting your question, make sure to check if it has been asked before. If you’re able to help another developer in need, don’t hesitate! The forum is really about getting help and giving back, and it’s a great way to to build your presence / reputation within the MuleSoft community. There’s a section dedicated to Training in the forum, make sure to check it out if you have additional questions coming up afterwards.
